The Project Support Team was set up in 2006 in order to lead the University’s efforts to participate in externally funded projects.

The Team facilitates the process of participation in externally funded projects by assisting and advising the resident academics during the proposal stage and during the project’s implementation in areas relating to project administration, financial matters and human resources. The team also provides assistance on the technical and legal aspects of a project, and works in close collaboration with the Office of Corporate Research & Knowledge Transfer within the University of Malta.

The Project Support Team works hand-in-hand with the faculties, institutes, centres and school, and strives to enhance the research environment of the University. The goal is to help strengthen the performance of the resident academics during their work on externally funded projects through its constant advice and support to achieve world-class research.
